Great news since I guess a GTA IV for Mac is out of the question...

Why haven't games been ported to the Mac all along?

Because Macs weren't even a viable option for gaming until about 2006 when they switched to Intel processors. But back then they were of course slower and there was no market for them. So it wasn't really until a year or two ago when Steam became available for Mac (and of course these days most Macs except for the low end ones have a dedicated graphics card) that gaming became a much more realistic possibility for most Mac users.

Still obviously a much smaller market though, but it seems Rockstar is one of the few developers willing to create, or in this case at least port, their games to the Mac OS. Which is good to see really.

And yes, I would assume GTA IV is quite some way off. A few years if it all.

And it's a Cider port, not a real native one. Still worth the try, though, and I hope some of them modding peeps would think about porting at least some of their tools to OS X. Sure, it might run on Wine, but a native IMG Tool for Mac would be a great idea.

Or you could use Windows like every normal human being... Windows 7 works on Mac if I remember it right.

Lol, they have a bigger market share than you think actually. But yes your right, Windows 7 runs fine through Boot Camp, and for the record, I tried Modern Warfare 2 on it, was able to play it smoothly with all the settings maxed out, so I'm sure you could easily play the GTA trilogy on it just fine so long as you have semi-decent hardware. GTA IV wouldn't run that well on my Mac so I didn't even bother trying it. I don't play games on it anyway.

LOL A bit late isn't it? I've been playing GTA 3 on my macbook via bootcamp.

I've seen some GTA IV on Mac gameplays and it seems to run fine...

But then again I've also seen the 360 version of GTA IV emulated on PC...

I wanted to ask, is it possible to run PC mods on this Mac version of GTA III?

Yep, possibly. .ASI hacks may work (since I tried using the IV HUD mod in SA while running it on a Mac), but some mods that require Windows-specific stuff may not work.

Have fun modding that

Yes you can! I've got lots of mods on iT!!
